Unfollowing You
Unfollowing You | Komal Kapoor
6 posts | 3 read
After prolific growth on social media, Komal Kapoor is utilizing her perceptive understanding of romance in the digital age to present her first collection of poems. Unfollowing You tells a chronological tale of a modern love through a series of poems, prose, texts, screen grabs, and unsent letters. Exploring digital phenomena like swipe culture and technological realities, Kapoors words affirm experiences and sentiment echoed across many media platforms. Unfollowing You is separated into two parts: Following You details how the two protagonists fall in love and Unfollowing You shares their heartbreak. The realism of this collection will encourage readers to normalize growth and indulge in their feelings, even finding strength in them.

Over the next few days, I'll be going down my following list, trimming away all the inactive accounts, the suspicious accounts, the spam bots, the postless and photoless accounts. It will take a while because the Android app in ungainly and I should have done this long ago. If I unfollowed you by mistake, let me know. I love you my #littens!

AmyG I need to do that, too. 6y
Trashcanman I've done that too, perhaps a little to much. 6y
Tadams4 Clean it up! 6y

tournevis @AmyG @Trashcanman @Tadams4 I got my first "proposition" on Litsy. And so it begins.... 6y
Jerdencon Good luck - I'm too lazy to do it 6y
Trashcanman Oh how foul! Ughhh 6y
rretzler I wish there was an easy way to compare who follows you with who you follow. I tried to do this, but gave up! But then I realized if someone is inactive, it probably doesn‘t really affect me anyway. 🤷🏼‍♀️ 6y
jenniferw88 Think I'm going to do this too@ 6y
SW-T Good luck! 6y
LibrarianRyan @tournevis I saw that. (Proposition. It‘s was just eweeeee). Actually now I think about it I think it was on Barbara‘s post I saw it. Reminded me very much of getting unsolicited attention on GR. 🤨 (edited) 6y
tournevis @Jerdencon @rretzler @jenniferw88 @rubyslippersreads @SW-T @LibrarianRyan It's the price of popularity for a social app. So yeah?!? 😕 6y
rretzler That‘s too bad! I don‘t know why people have to be that way. ☹️ 6y
tournevis @rretzler I agree, but people generally suck, don't they. But we don't. 😘 6y
Libby1 I‘m not spam! 😊 6y
tournevis @Libby1 What you are is lovely! 6y
Libby1 💕💕💕 6y
GingerAntics I‘ve been doing that lately, too. 6y
tournevis @GingerAntics The price of fame. 6y
GingerAntics 🤣😂🤣 yeah 6y
GingerAntics Wait, proposition? Does that mean what I think that means? 6y
tournevis @GingerAntics Yes, yes it does! 6y
GingerAntics 🤦🏼‍♀️ 6y
Clare-Dragonfly Uhhh. Wow. 😰 6y
tournevis @Clare-Dragonfly Yep. 6y
Lynnsoprano OMG! I haven‘t seen anything like that, and I hope I never do. But I‘ve been cleaning out over the last month or so. 6y
tournevis @Lynnsoprano Fun time... 6y

Mehso-so

A collection of "poems," more like ruminations and text message compilations, following the arc of a failed doomed relationship of young people. While I'm sure some people probably relate (particularly young people in their first relationships), the "characters" here aren't fully formed and while there is some nice writing, there's no subtext or nuance here.

[I received an advanced e-galley of this book through Netgalley.]

I enjoyed this collection of poetry! I felt like the poet did a good job of displaying the path love takes in our society. In today‘s society, when a relationship takes a turn it ends with unfollowing on social media. The message behind the poetry collection was that once you move on from someone you can finally unfollow them. I loved it!
